Portland Sketch Comedy Festival presents: Sleepover (Seattle)

Thu, Jul 12 from 8pm - 9pm

The Portland Sketch Comedy Festival is excited because Seattle is in the house with SLEEPOVER!

Alex Blackstone, Justina Kolb, and Kristopher Gray met in 2015 at Seattle’s Jet City Improv. The three became fast friends based on their shared love of early-90s Canadian sketch comedy and New York-based, three-piece, punk-rock-turned-hip-hop musical acts. Sleepover has produced several full-length sketch shows at Seattle’s The Pocket Theater and performed at SketchFest Seattle in 2016 and 2017.

Sleepover’s comedy has been described as “weirdly 90s,” “realistically absurd,” and “like the product of people just hanging out talking about dumb shit.” Its members have been likened to “every (presumed) stoner you wish you had been friends with in high school.”
